Hookify

Hook Creation & Management System

Overview

Comprehensive hook development toolkit providing automated hook generation, testing utilities, documentation generation, and management for React, Vue, and other modern frontend frameworks.

Quick Start

Installation

npm install -g @hookify/cli
# or
npx @hookify/cli init

Initialize Hook Project

# Initialize in existing project
hookify init

# Create new hook library
hookify create my-hooks --template=react

# Add to existing project
hookify add --project=my-react-app --framework=react

Hook Generation

React Hooks

# Generate custom hook
hookify generate useUserData --framework=react

# Generate with dependencies
hookify generate useApi --framework=react --deps=useState,useEffect

# Generate with TypeScript
hookify generate useLocalStorage --framework=react --typescript --generic

React Hook Template

// hooks/useApi.ts
import { useState, useEffect, useCallback } from 'react';

interface UseApiOptions<T> {
  immediate?: boolean;
  onSuccess?: (data: T) => void;
  onError?: (error: Error) => void;
}

interface UseApiReturn<T> {
  data: T | null;
  loading: boolean;
  error: Error | null;
  execute: () => Promise<void>;
  reset: () => void;
}

export function useApi<T>(
  url: string,
  options: UseApiOptions<T> = {}
): UseApiReturn<T> {
  const { immediate = true, onSuccess, onError } = options;
  
  const [data, setData] = useState<T | null>(null);
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
  const [error, setError] = useState<Error | null>(null);

  const execute = useCallback(async () => {
    try {
      setLoading(true);
      setError(null);
      
      const response = await fetch(url);
      if (!response.ok) {
        throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
      }
      
      const result = await response.json();
      setData(result);
      onSuccess?.(result);
    } catch (err) {
      const error = err instanceof Error ? err : new Error('Unknown error');
      setError(error);
      onError?.(error);
    } finally {
      setLoading(false);
    }
  }, [url, onSuccess, onError]);

  const reset = useCallback(() => {
    setData(null);
    setLoading(false);
    setError(null);
  }, []);

  useEffect(() => {
    if (immediate) {
      execute();
    }
  }, [immediate, execute]);

  return { data, loading, error, execute, reset };
}

# Generate Vue composable
hookify generate useUserData --framework=vue

# Generate with reactivity
hookify generate useCounter --framework=vue --reactive

# Generate with TypeScript
hookify generate useLocalStorage --framework=vue --typescript

Vue Composable Template

// composables/useApi.ts
import { ref, computed, watch } from 'vue';

interface UseApiOptions<T> {
  immediate?: boolean;
  onSuccess?: (data: T) => void;
  onError?: (error: Error) => void;
}

export function useApi<T>(
  url: string,
  options: UseApiOptions<T> = {}
) {
  const { immediate = true, onSuccess, onError } = options;
  
  const data = ref<T | null>(null);
  const loading = ref(false);
  const error = ref<Error | null>(null);

  const execute = async () => {
    try {
      loading.value = true;
      error.value = null;
      
      const response = await fetch(url);
      if (!response.ok) {
        throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
      }
      
      const result = await response.json();
      data.value = result;
      onSuccess?.(result);
    } catch (err) {
      const errorValue = err instanceof Error ? err : new Error('Unknown error');
      error.value = errorValue;
      onError?.(errorValue);
    } finally {
      loading.value = false;
    }
  };

  const reset = () => {
    data.value = null;
    loading.value = false;
    error.value = null;
  };

  // Computed properties
  const isIdle = computed(() => !loading.value && !error.value && data.value === null);
  const isSuccess = computed(() => !loading.value && !error.value && data.value !== null);
  const isError = computed(() => !loading.value && error.value !== null);

  // Auto-execute if immediate
  if (immediate) {
    execute();
  }

  return {
    data,
    loading: readonly(loading),
    error: readonly(error),
    execute,
    reset,
    isIdle,
    isSuccess,
    isError
  };

Svelte Hooks

# Generate Svelte store
hookify generate useUserData --framework=svelte

# Generate writable store
hookify generate useCounter --framework=svelte --type=writable

# Generate derived store
hookify generate useFilteredData --framework=svelte --type=derived

Svelte Store Template

// stores/useApi.ts
import { writable, derived } from 'svelte/store';

interface ApiState<T> {
  data: T | null;
  loading: boolean;
  error: Error | null;
}

function createApiStore<T>(url: string) {
  const { subscribe, set, update } = writable<ApiState<T>>({
    data: null,
    loading: false,
    error: null
  });

  const execute = async () => {
    update(state => ({ ...state, loading: true, error: null }));
    
    try {
      const response = await fetch(url);
      if (!response.ok) {
        throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
      }
      
      const result = await response.json();

Hook Templates

Common Hook Patterns

# Generate data fetching hook
hookify generate useFetch --template=data-fetching

# Generate form handling hook
hookify generate useForm --template=form-handling

# Generate authentication hook
hookify generate useAuth --template=authentication

# Generate local storage hook
hookify generate useLocalStorage --template=storage

# useApi

A custom hook for handling API calls with loading states, error handling, and caching capabilities.

## Usage

\`\`\`typescript
import { useApi } from './hooks/useApi';

interface User {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  email: string;
}

function UserProfile({ userId }: { userId: number }) {
  const { data: user, loading, error, execute } = useApi<User>(
    \`https://api.example.com/users/\${userId}\`
  );

  if (loading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
  if (error) return <div>Error: {error.message}</div>;
  if (!user) return <div>No user found</div>;

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>{user.name}</h1>
      <p>{user.email}</p>
      <button
    </div>
  );
}
\`\`\`

## API

### Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
| url | \`string\` | - | The API endpoint URL |
| options | \`UseApiOptions<T>\` | \`{}\` | Configuration options |

### Options

| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| immediate | \`boolean\` | \`true\` | Whether to fetch data immediately |
| onSuccess | \`(data: T) => void\` | - | Callback called on successful fetch |
| onError | \`(error: Error) => void\` | - | Callback called on error |

### Return Value

| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| data | \`T | null\` | The fetched data |
| loading | \`boolean\` | Whether the request is in progress |
| error | \`Error | null\` | Any error that occurred |
| execute | \`() => Promise<void>\` | Function to manually trigger the request |
| reset | \`() => void\` | Function to reset the hook state |

## Examples

### Basic Usage

\`\`\`typescript
const { data, loading, error } = useApi('https://api.example.com/data');
\`\`\`

### With Error Handling

\`\`\`typescript
const { data, loading, error } = useApi('https://api.example.com/data', {
  onError: (error) => console.error('API Error:', error)
});
\`\`\`

### Manual Execution

\`\`\`typescript
const { data, loading, error, execute } = useApi(
  'https://api.example.com/data',
  { immediate: false }
);

// Trigger request manually
const handleRefresh = () => {
  execute();
};
\`\`\`

## TypeScript Support

This hook is fully typed with TypeScript:

\`\`\`typescript
interface ApiResponse {
  id: number;
  name: string;
}

const { data } = useApi<ApiResponse>('https://api.example.com/data');
// data is typed as ApiResponse | null
\`\`\`

## Dependencies

- React 16.8+ (for hooks support)
- TypeScript 4.0+ (for type support)

## Related Hooks

- \`useFetch\` - Simpler data fetching hook
- \`useLocalStorage\` - Local storage synchronization
- \`useDebounce\` - Debounced values
